Her winning response:

‘I’d get a Lowe’s Gift Card. Last year my nephew received a chick for Easter. Personally, I’m not a fan of giving animals as gifts without careful consideration of the child’s age and maturity. But, his extended family thought it would be cute to include a chick in his Easter Basket.

Nephew adored the chick on the first day, but predictably lost interest as the chick lost his yellow fuzz and his adult plumage and ornery temperament grew in. Nephew’s mom was not amused by the chick’s inability to be house trained.

Before long, the poor thing ended up in the garage with little interaction. My DH and I are animal lovers and whenever we’d visit we’d play with Ollie (the chick), and even fostered him at our home for a time. But, whenever we brought up adopting Ollie, nephew would get upset and say it was HIS chicken (even though he’s rather play on his PS3 than with Ollie).

There wasn’t much we could do to help Ollie. Until recently, when we received a call that Ollie gotten out and pecked apart her flower beds and scratched up their lawn. They’d had enough, and asked if we would still like to adopt Ollie. DH went right over, and picked up Ollie. She’s in our basement right now. We’ve had her three days now, and she is a joy. I swear, she has the same emotional range as a dog, and she loves to cuddle! I guess this is because they’re social animals?

Anyway, I if I were to win a Lowe’s card I would use it to buy materials to build a chicken coop for Ollie. I think she would enjoy being outside in a spacious coop, where she could enjoy scratching for grubs and seeds in the sunshine.

I hope I win and thanks for the opportunity!”
